I give a detailed route description on this page if you are interested.

19% grade with lots of twisties

Dropping down to Pathfinder Reservoir

Sweet river canyon between Alcova and Pathfinder reservoirs

After the twisties a cool bridge over the river canyon

Dropping down into Cottonwood Creek campground

Yep, there was some drifting around on this long deep sand climb

Hard to believe Mike didn't go down looking at his tracks

Looking out to the east from the top of the Shirley mountains

Mike found some rocks for us to climb

Checking out the mesas in the valley below

Taking in the view from an overlook camping spot

Our place to eat and sleep for the night

Cool bar at The Virginian

These ominous clouds over the Shirley mountains we crossed earlier in the day. Weather to the southwest gave us concern for tomorrow's ride

High speed gravel, freestyling addons, rocky climbs, and deep sand - this day had it all
